18. You that live in Dibon,come down from your place of honourand sit on the ground in the dust;Moab's destroyer is hereand has left its forts in ruins.
19. You that live in Aroer,stand by the road and wait;ask those who are running away,find out from them what has happened.
20. ‘Moab has fallen,’ they will answer,‘weep for it; it is disgraced.Announce along the River Arnonthat Moab is destroyed!’
21. “Judgement has come on the cities of the plateau: on Holon, Jahzah, Mephath,
22. Dibon, Nebo, Beth Diblathaim,
23. Kiriathaim, Bethgamul, Bethmeon,
24. Kerioth, and Bozrah. Judgement has come on all the cities of Moab, far and near.
25. Moab's might has been crushed; its power has been destroyed. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
